Getting your home cleaned by a Dallas maid service saves you time and guarantees a super clean environment. In between visits, however, it can be tough to keep up. Who has time in their busy schedule to mop, dust, wipe, and shine every single day? Luckily, you don’t have to commit hours out of your day to keep your home clean. Follow this plan to craft a 30-minute cleaning routine that keeps your living spaces free of debris and dirt until the next scheduled visit from Dallas house cleaning services.
Pick It Up – Things That Are Out-Of-Place
With a laundry basket in tow, walk around your home. When you find things that are out-of-place, deposit them in your basket. Relocate items to their proper places. If you’re in a hurry, set the basket aside for later distribution.
In bigger homes, you may need multiple baskets to hold all the toys, trinkets, and personal items your loved ones leave lying around. Others may choose to use multiple baskets to separate electronics and other delicate items.
For a modest-sized family home, this step shouldn’t take more than 5 to 8 minutes.
Throw It Out
Retrace your steps, this time with a trash container. Throw away any trash or unwanted items you find around the home. Use a bigger trash bag so you can use it to empty smaller receptacles. Make sure to check under tables, chairs, and other furniture so you don’t miss anything.
This is not the time to get caught up in deep decisions. If you aren’t sure if something is trash or not, add it to your redistribution basket for later consideration.
This short step only takes 2 to 5 minutes on a normal day.
Wipe It Down
Now is the time to shine, literally. With your spray bottle and cleaning cloth, give all the surfaces of your home a quick once-over. Pay special attention to shiny surfaces like mirrors and appliances. Bathrooms and kitchens take the most attention but don’t neglect dressers, desks, and tables.
Switch cleaning cloths in between rooms to keep germs and allergens from spreading throughout the home. Disposable wipes are a sanitary solution that also saves time.
You should be able to whiz through this step in 10 to 12 minutes.
Get Down on the Floor
Break out your dust mops, brooms, and vacuums to tackle your floors and carpets. Shake out small area rugs to dislodged dirt and dust before taking on the rest of the room. This doesn’t have to be a thorough cleaning. Save the hard-to-reach or rarely seen areas for another day.
Perform a quick spot-mopping on your hardwood and linoleum floors. Don’t waste time hauling out your bucket. A damp cloth and spray cleanser allow you to quickly wipe up small spills with minimal effort.
Take 5 to 10 minutes to refresh your floors and revitalize the feeling of your entire space.
Keeping your home clean doesn’t have to be a time-consuming challenge. Use this simple daily routine after a deep cleaning from your Dallas house cleaning service to fight off clutter and grime.
